Chapter 6

Title: Dramatic Entrance

[Author's notes: Returning to her investigation, Seras sets herself down for a chat while waiting for her suspect.]

"So, how long have you been working here?" Seras asked a blonde-haired, tan-skinned girl sitting in front of her, sipping a drink.

"I guess it'd be 3 years; it's a good job, you know..." the blonde said, giving Seras a seductive wink; "...if you ever consider something else than PI, I could pull some strings..."

"Really? Well, I've got a little complection, but I'll consider it, anyway" Seras said, sending the blonde a shy smile; truth to be, she would hardly mind working with these other girls.

"Hey, red-eye; I think your suspect's arrived" a black-haired, gothic-dressed girl patted Seras' shoulder, pointing at the bar door, where a red-haired, leather-clad woman had just stepped in.

"Oh, shit! She's a vampire...!" Seras thought to herself, spotting the woman's pale skin, blood-red lips and silvery green eyes; as she headed for the bar desk, she paid quite some notice to a wildly dancing, green-haired girl wearing a tight leotard of black latex.

"Ah, good evening, Rayne" the waitress behind the desk greeted, the vampire woman giving her a smile.

"I suppose you have it ready? I would prefer having my drink after I'm done here..." the vampire woman named Rayne asked, the waitress' smile fading slightly.

"Ye-yes, I remembered it; I've got it out in the wardrobe when I'm done here" the waitress said, Rayne smiling at her.

"It didn't hurt too much, did it?" she asked, Seras perplexed to hear the vampire woman sound right out concerned.

"No, not really; I just couldn't get too much out; I 'do' need it, myself!" the waitress said, sounding quite stubborn.

"Well, you're right there, but just remember it's all better than I go about turning to extremes with your loveable little ladies 'round here" Rayne partly teased.

"I think that about does it..." Seras mumbled to herself, observing Rayne as she headed for the dancing, green-haired girl, looking almost predatory and hungry at her.
